Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)*
04
150
* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.
WARNING
Adaptive Cruise Control only warns of
vehicles detected by the radar sensor, see
page 155. In some cases there may be no
warning or the warning may be delayed.
The driver should always apply the brakes
when necessary.
Steep inclines and/or heavy loads
ACC is primarily intended for use on fairly
level roads. The system may have difficulty
maintaining the correct distance to a vehicle
ahead on steep inclines, if the vehicle is car-
rying a heavy load or is towing a trailer. In
these situations, the driver should always be
prepared to apply the brakes if necessary.
